Common methods of steaming pears

1. Method 1

There are many different ways to steam pears. You can prepare fresh pears, wolfberries, honey and rock sugar in appropriate amounts. Wash the pear with clean water, cut a small piece from the bottom, take out the pear core in the middle, dig out a little of the pear flesh in the middle, fill it with clean water, put the washed wolfberries and rock sugar in the middle of the pear, cover it with the cut pear lid, and steam it directly in the pot. After steaming, take out the pear and drink the soup.

2. Method 2

When making steamed pears at home, you can also add an appropriate amount of Fritillaria cirrhosa. When making it, wash the prepared fresh pears with clean water, then cut it at 1/5, dig out the pear core in the middle, place the prepared Fritillaria cirrhosa in the middle, then add a few pieces of rock sugar, put the cut part back in place and fix it with toothpicks, then put it in a bowl and steam it in a pot. After the water boils, steam it for another half an hour. The pear will be cooked. At this time, you can turn off the heat and take it out to eat, because the addition of Fritillaria cirrhosa will make the steamed pear's lung-clearing and cough-relieving effect even better.
